DOI: 10.1007/s10980-019-00781-3
Abstract: ContextHabitat characteristics are often equated with habitat function for animals. However, in heterogeneous landscapes, similar habitat types occur in different environmental contexts. In the marine realm, landscape studies have been confined to particular environments, rather… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11356-018-3345-8
Abstract: Estuaries serve as nursery grounds for many marine fish species. However, increasing human activities within estuaries and surrounding areas lead to significant habitat quality degradation for the juveniles. In recent years, plastic pollution has become… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ecss.2018.07.008
Abstract: Abstract The construction of ports has caused substantial habitat destruction in coastal areas previously used as nursery grounds by many fish species, with consequences to fish stocks. These artificial coastal areas might provide alternative nursery… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jembe.2016.10.003
Abstract: In order to recruit into adult populations juvenile fish must be able to find food, successfully compete with other organisms and avoid predation within a habitat, in other words they must be able to locate… read more here.

DOI: 10.1134/s2075111719040076
Abstract: Passive downstream migration of juvenile fish associated with the invasive water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) was investigated in the delta of the Mekong River. The behavioral program of juveniles aimed at leaving the coastal attached vegetation… read more here.

DOI: 10.12681/mms.18857
Abstract: The sublittoral forests formed by the fucoid algae Cystoseira spp. are important juvenile habitats for many Mediterranean fish species. However, the spatial variability of juvenile fish assemblages within the forests and the potential environmental drivers,… read more here.
